Thanks for all the reply but I was saving up for a F800 GS, but that'll require ALOT of savings compared to the BSA. Do you think it's a fair price, I still have to physically assess the condition of the bike and maybe get to test ride it if the owner is willing.......... but I have the feeling he'll ask me drop a deposit equaling the total cost.

Wolfc70....the idea of getting a classic bike is to be able to "turn a wrench", stripping threads is operator error and nothing to do with the bike. As for horrible wiring, just look at the FZ6.
People do not go into classic bikes if they think that they can just hop on it and ride forever like they can with the FZ6. It is the same for classic cars.
Classic bikes are making a big comeback in Europe. Not just the old bikes but the way designers are looking at new bike design as well. Look at the Royal Enfields for example. People are getting bored with a lot of bikes looking the same.
If you have the interest and ability to work on old bikes it is well worth the effort and it certainly is not all doom and gloom as some people make out.
